Hopefully you've looked at the new online bulletin and have noticed that SSVT now has a twitter account. Have you looked into twitter yet? For a very long time I shunned twitter, thinking it was just a venue for tweens to discuss their latest crush. I recently gave in and created a twitter account and, I'm almost embarrassed to admit, I'm addicted. I'm finding that twitter is an excellent way to keep abreast of just about any topic you can possibly imagine.
One of my favorite feeds to follow is #edchat. It's the most popular hashtag for educational content. I guarantee if you create a twitter account and search for #edchat you will find at least one article that you will be interested in reading.
I urge you to set up a twitter account and just have a look around. How do you get started?
- Go to http://www.twitter.com and sign up for a new account.
- Once registered follow SSVT by entering
@SouthShoreVoc into the search box at the top of the page. Once you find the account click "follow". - Next, start searching for interesting content. Searching for #edchat will show you all the #edchat tweets.
I hope to be able to follow many of you soon, wouldn't it be great to have an active #ssvt? You might not be able to answer that now, but trust me, it would!
Happy tweeting -- yes, it's called "tweeting" not "twitting. Don't say twitting because, as my daughter pointed out to me, that's just WRONG.
